You can still chroot the users as usual, but with Frontpage installed, they can now use Frontpage 98/2000 to download/edit/upload their web pages while on line. >What's the root web? The root web is the default DocumentRoot for the apache server. >Is the fpadmin username/password an unix-account, or is it a different >namespace? fpadmin - is the default Administrative user for the entire Apache-FrontPage Server. (NOTE: You can choose a different name for the Administrative user when you install the server). The FrontPage Extentions uses Apache's mod_auth_db module to do user authentication for access to the root, user or virtual webs. It is also used to determine who has Author and Administrative privlieges. http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_auth_db.html >The same for ordinary users? Same as above. NOTE: You will need to install the FrontPage extentions into user and virtual webs. Then create a FrontPage user that has only Author privlieges, so the client can update their pages. >Where can I find an explanation which gives an overview of the principles of >frontpage? http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/frontpage/wpp/serk/ Scot To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
